Smaller sites have a huge barrier to entry for consumers though. For a large percentage of gamers, myself included, if it's not on Steam, it might as well not exist. I'm far more hesitant to download/purchase from other services.
The nice thing about steam is that:
1: They're established, I don't have to worry about my CC security
2: I can re-download forever* on any computer. It is impossible to overstate how big of a deal this is.
3: Nothing to remember. No serials/keys to keep track of. No installers to back-up. IT JUST WORKS.
